if you dont want the mazdaspeed one you need to either fill the holes your current spoiler made or get a new trunk.

Searching will yield quite a few answers/pics.

I'm actually liking the lip spoilers more and more.

Lancer, it also depends on what mods you have on your 8. If you exterior is completely stock, I would go with a subtle lip spoiler. If you have a kit, then you'll have a few options.

I just bought a body kits and about to get it paint( picture is coming soon) . So carbon fiber spoiler and cf trunk will be my next mods. I have done some research but I havent seen any good one yet. and there are not many of them .

That spoiler look really nice, but I am going to replace my trunk with a CF trunk any way, so a new CF spoiler will go with it. and a new hole will be drilled also.

not exactly. There is one however that is very very simular made in Carbon. I ve seen the difference between the two at a show. The two wings were side by side and were hard to see the difference. That being said the front tip of the Carbon spoiler is a little bit more fanged(sharper) and the top surface of the Carbon spoiler isn't as scalloped as the factory wing. Other than that they are the same... This company is the only co. that makes it... Ohh and by the way the GTO that i saw the carbon spoiler on was one that had been driven by Rhyse Millen...

if you already have the holes the racing beat spoiler is an option.
